Panel detail shows my sumi inks and washes on rice paper over Dan Mazur's original pencils based on a short story (Yam Gruel) by  Ryūnosuke Akutagawa author of Rashōmon and In a Groove inspiration for Akira Kurosawa's movie of the same name.
For a very detail review of the book check 13 Minutes.

Outlaw Pizza, Yam Gruel and HGirl.

This are a few things I have been working lately:
YAM GRUEL it's a collaboration with cartoonist Dan Mazur, based on the story by the same name by 
Ryūnosuke Akutagawa, the author of the stories "In a Groove" and "Rashōmon" that inspired the Akira Kurosawa film. If you are interested in reading the stories (they are all great and very inspiring) you can get a new trade with a cover by Yoshihiro Tatsumi of Gekiga fame. 



OUTLAW PIZZA, a funny animal post apocalyptic story of flavor survival, as the previous story this has been submitted to the Inbound Anthology issue #5  by the Boston Comics Roundtable. This story will continue beyond the Inbound chapter as a webcomic in full color you can subscribe for updates here.

HGIRL it's my submission for a new challenge being posted at Ten Ton Studios, the idea it's to create a character based on a few sentences for the kick off challenge this is the concept:

"An alien/human hybrid is created in a secret lab in New Jersey.  She is raised in the lab (in natural time, none of that accelerated growth nonsense) and comes to see the scientists as her family.  One day the lab is destroyed, and she learns that there is a world outside of the lab, and that there is great suffering and injustice in the world.  With her special abilities, she vows to protect humankind, at least as many as she can in NJ. Name and alien type subject to your whims.  Use your imagination and have fun!
